Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Monday, April 01, 2024

A video from inside a migrant shelter in Denver shows a city leader begging families to move on to other cities and warning of a bleak future if they stay. In the clip obtained by 9NEWS, Denver's Newcomer Communications Liaison Andres Carrera, who also serves as Mayor Mike Johnston's political director, tells newly arrived migrants that Denver cannot support them. "The opportunities are over," Carrera says to the group in Spanish. "New York gives you more. Chicago gives you more. So I suggest you go there where there is longer-term shelter. There are also more job opportunities there." Denver is offering to pay for migrants' onward bus fare to destinations of their choice, a decision decried by other cities also struggling with the migrant crisis. The migrants Carrera is seen speaking to on video arrived in Denver on March 26 on a bus organized by Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, according to a city spokesperson.

They should be bussed back to Texas. Drop 'em in Dallas. It's not up to Abbott to decide where they should go.

Who is it up to?

If they want to go somewhere Abbott is advertising, what's the problem?

I always thought Texas was a hell hole. Someone offered me a bus ticket out of there I'd take it.

Sanctuary cities know best how to absorb these newcomers.

They asked for them to come. They are coming.

What's not to like. I mean unless you're unskilled and looking for a job, but hey no one wants that job, whatever job that is apparently.

Imagine coming to CA, citizens getting laid off, getting a FF job and earning $20.00/hr replacing citizens.

Sounds like a great country!

Progressive virtual signaling at it's finest. They want the tee shirt but don't want to participate.

I suggest they move to Salt Lake City. They "claim" to not have a homeless problem.

Perhaps they should be given choices of where to go. But that's not what Abbott is doing...

Abbott's new law wants to simply send them all to Mexico, even though a significant # of them are not Mexican. If you're going to deport them, at least send them to their country of origin.

Tell Trump to let the house sign the bipartisan Bill. It does address much of this.

Why? I didn't get a choice.

You tell him, why does he need to address it, he didn't cause it.
